A Little Break For a PSA

I know I like to be snarky and sassy in my blog posts, but I'm going to take a break for a hot sec.  When I was 12 or 13 I realized I was gay.  Alone.  An internal thought when drying myself after showering.  And my first instinct was, "Oh Christ.   If I'm gay I might just have to commit suicide.  I can't even imagine a life if I were a lesbian."  It took me so long to say the words "I'm gay" and then to start from scratch in life.  Now that I am successful (in mind and spirit) and very happily married to my wife I want to post this video of a friend of ours.  Kyle is my wife's best friend since they were young and his, now fiancé, Tommy is a very good friend and a talented performer- he sang at our wedding. This is a video of Kyle's proposal.  Without grandstanding.  Without preaching.  Without prejudice.  I give you love.

 

And now back to our regularly scheduled programing.

My Feelings and Guidelines on This the Day of the Tonys in GIFs

Tony Sunday. It's like the gay super bowl except that Tight End is a compliment and a Hail Mary is greeting.

1. NPH should host all of the things.

2. Chenoweth should be there.  Be adorable.  And sing a showtune. #nocountry



3. No one is allowed to talk while "Once" performs.




4. There is no judgment on how much booze you consume or how many greasy, cheese based apps you eat whilst watching the Tonys.




5. If Sara Ramirez makes an appearance I may scream like I was on the episode of Oprah's Favorite Things.



6. If they let some unprofessional backstage newbie run the mics again this year all of my stage management friends will be like...



7. Let all the casts come together and sing like they did 3 years ago to Hair's "Let the Sun Shine"



and that's how you do the Tonys...
